It is way easier to stop taking planes, being veg·gie·an, stop contributing to tourism, stop buying first-hand cloths and goods… when you already did all of that earlier in your life.

They All Signed the “Harper’s” Letter. Where Are They Now? | The Nation thenation.com/article/society/

That is an excellent question. And the answer is right in the picture below 👇

Basically, they are simply living entranched in their place of #priviledges and confusing #FreedomOfSpeech with the liberty of saying anything without having to face consequences nor being held accountable. They want the power, not the #responsibilities And anyone reminding them of that is considered an enemy.

If these erstwhile free speech champions were only guilty of hypocrisy—or bad faith—they would hardly be worth writing about now, but in many ways they helped lay the groundwork for Trump’s second term. Consider the column for which Bennet was ousted, which was among the inspirations for the Harper’s letter: a Republican senator, Tom Cotton, calling for the use of military force to violently suppress free assembly (in protest of lethal police violence, no less). Cotton recently described Khalil as “a pro-Hamas foreigner” and scoffed at the idea that he has any rights worth defending. From the start, the speech being defended was advocating the violent, top-down defense of existing social hierarchies—which in 2025 is not the least bit abstract.
